Approximately 150 people attended the grand opening of the Molino Community Complex, 6450 Highway 95-A North, on Wednesday, October 17. This historical renovation project included the conversion of the old Molino School into a 15,600 square foot library, community center and museum, as well as a new 7,000 square foot facility constructed for the Tax Collector and Property Appraiser. This facility will also house a polling station for early voting and elections.
